of_o some_o man_n stomach_n and_o that_o be_v some_o oath_n and_o obligation_n and_o subscription_n which_o the_o wise_a and_o great_a council_n of_o the_o nation_n think_v proper_a to_o be_v take_v and_o enter_v into_o and_o when_o the_o government_n have_v thus_o determine_v they_o to_o be_v proper_a i_o think_v it_o no_o offence_n to_o any_o any_o man_n conscience_n to_o comply_v with_o they_o the_o throne_n become_v vacant_a by_o session_n or_o desertion_n and_o the_o next_o heir_n by_o rightful_a succession_n be_v place_v in_o it_o by_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o the_o consent_n of_o
